Hi!

On 7/15/09, I hit my dietitian's goal weight of 135 lbs.  She did say that I could stay "around 135 lbs." so I figure I can go up or down a little, and she doesn't account for clothes... so if I lose a little, I think I'm good. In fact, I've gone a little farther.  I'm 133.5 lbs. today.  Since she doesn't account for clothes and I do, her weight tends to be 2-3 pounds higher than my weight at home. Whatever.  Plus, my appointment with her tends to be at 1 p.m. which is kinda crappy.  I do have lunch after I see her though.  And I don't drink large amounts of water before I see her either.  Something I tend to do though (I've read other people do this too, so I'm not the only one!).  I wear the same clothes, or nearly the same clothes every time (hope she doesn't notice!:) ), and they are the lightest clothes I can find.  

I don't remember if I have posted this already, but about a week or so ago I sprained my ankle.  It's not terribly bad.  It's in a soft brace though.  *Giggles* The brace is goth though!  It's all strappy, it's got a spider on one side, and it's got a spiderweb on the other side.  The brand name is "Darco".  If you say it out loud, it sounds kinda goth-ish.  I used to be goth...:) I know, you wouldn't know it, to look at me now.  I'm all girly, pink and stuff.  I don't know when I changed!

Since I sprained my ankle, various people have advised me (and I already knew) to only exercise about half an hour per day :( I really haven't stuck to that:( I have been doing an hour or more... a little obsessive about it! It's like they told me that I can't do much exercise, so I do it more than say I can.  Almost like "forbidden fruit".

Okay, I just realized I'm talking all about Eating Disorder stuff, and I want to get away from that.  Was going to post another journal writing about non-ED stuff, but I don't have time since my nephew Timmy should be arriving shortly!   Oh wow, my screen saver came up before (i left the room for a minute) and it was showing old pictures of my niece Julia when she was smaller and had pretty much no hair:) She's now almost 4 years old (her birthday is this weekend!) and *just* got her first haircut!  Her hair is so fine and wispy:) Just like her Grandma's!

Gotta go!
